sooby said:Interesting about your 'Sandra Elizabeth' because it starts much later here. 'Susan Elizabeth' on the other hand is probably closer to the flowering time for your 'Sandra Elizabeth'.

I've never heard about a 'Susan Elizabeth' before - for two years I tried to get Sandra Elizabeth because I was told it is the benchmark for very late flowering daylilies. The plant I've got finally looks like the right one (size/flower size and form). See pictures of my one below.

My Hemerocallis multiflora is not particularly tall.

I think/hope, mine will be this one:

I found it in a garden here but it was not flowering anymore - the height and the many branches/buds was impressing. The owner told me, that it flowers incredible long and has a strong fragrance.

sooby said:I'm never quite sure what is being described as Hemerocallis citrina baroni! There is actually no such name (somewhere on this forum there is a more detailed discussion on that). So it could be any of three things from my understanding. It could be Hemerocallis citrina, it could be something someone called Hemercallis citrina "Baroni clone" presumably indicating the clone originally described, or it could be the hybrid cultivar 'Baroni' which is H. thunbergii x H. citrina (Sprenger 1903). So it makes it potentially difficult to compare.

I was told that the 'baronii'-type is the better garden plant - I bought it from a collector who had a H. citrina and a H. citrina baronii on display. I can post a picture if the plant flowers today.

sooby said:For importing seeds you would need to check your own agricultural authority because they make the determinations as to what is required. Countries often allow small amounts of seeds without a phytosanitary certificate.

Thanks for the hint - I will check this.
